Fire Mike Hill

Featured Replies

oh yeah. is Samson even with the team anymore? I haven't heard him mentioned in forever

 

My friend that midget has been on his throne since 2002, and he is still going strong. Hear he might be on the next celebrity fear factor.

 

 

It boggles my mind how quickly the Dodgers became the gem of a city once McCourt was pushed out.

 

If someone could just record Loria saying something racist or offensive...this nightmare might end.

 

 

I have a beef with that plan

 

this line truly made my day. Hahahahahahahahahaha

I'm not sure Mike Hill has much say over the roster, and certainly has the worst resources of all the teams around him to do his job.

 

Nothing changes until Loria is gone or he lets baseball personnel make the decisions. Not really defending Hill here, but I can't complain about anyone specific when Loria unquestionably makes every major decision.

So....

 

i thought I'd go back and look at every trade the Marlins made since the 2011 offseason and tabulate the WAR acquired vs. the WAR traded away.  All stats from Baseball Reference...

 

Marlins WAR acquired......... 32.8

 

Marlins WAR traded away.... 57.1

 

Thats horrible, my friends.  The other team received 74% more WAR in trades than we did.  The ONLY way you could justify such a disparity is if we stocked our farm system with great prospects who have a bright future's worth of WAR awaiting them in the show.  We all know that, if anything, many of the good young players we've traded away are likely to keep racking up WAR, making the 57 1-32.8 disparity even worse.

 

Consider the following young players, who have yet to collect 2 WAR:

 

Josh Naylor

 

Chris Paddack

 

Grant Dayton

 

Andrew Heaney

 

Enrique Hernandez

 

Add in Carter Capps, Sam Dyson, Anthony Desclafani (who beat us tonight), Jake Marisnick, and 3 competitive balance picked traded away to boot and you have all the proof you need that Mike Hill is absolutely incompetent and should be fired.

How about sending this data to Loria,but I think he knows everything.

Quite a telling post. Good job

 

 

I'd imagine Anibal Sanchez alone probably accounts for a lot of that difference in WAR considering we got zero out of the return.

 

Less than zero, actually.  Both he and Infante combined were about 8 or 9 WAR. But, among the players we got back, only Justin Turner had a positive WAR; the other 2 players (Flynn and Brantley) had negative WAR playing for us.  Of course, we flipped Flynn for Aaron Crow a while back and now Flynn has a post-Marlins WAR of 0.6.

 

So there's that.

WE CAN HAVE INFANTE BACK..... BTW.... HES IN THE BARGAIN BIN LOL
